In addition to what other people have said, there are people of more
than one gender reading this list...please be respectful.
(ok, is that just my poor English allowing me to see the unintended
meaning, or is that sentence ambiguous also for native speakers?)
People is being used as a collective set here. A set of people can have
more than one gender in it. If the person had really meant some individuals
had mutliple genders, then they would probably had said "persons" instead of
"people". Persons implies that each person is to be treated individually,
but that there are multiple individuals.
In practice it is still ambiguous.
